Surprised Backlash didn’t get a nomination for show of the year so far.
Diddler for H.O.F
19:20. Absolutely Paul. Roman Reigns has orchestrated a complete face turn, without even being on screen, almost exclusively on the strength of Hayman’s work is truly incredible.
Speedball Mike Bailey continues to be my favorite wrestler working in America who isn't on WWE or AEW. Especially during Mania week, Mike puts on top tier fights with anyone and everyone.
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by this, but what a pleasant surprise!
RIP Sika Anoa'i.
Think Adam Pearce was slept on for best non-wrestler imo

@jansmitowiczauthor78 he was drunk and arrested while in Canada (allegedly). Half his body went numb and didnt work his last match which is why it ended early. Then he has continued to turn down stories including one where it's explained why him and Big Bill split

@@hello1721From what I understand, that's mainly unsubstantiated rumours, alongside some half truths made to paint him worse than it was. With that said, I don't think he's underrated. Personally, I think people completely overrate his charisma. He's similar to Tyson Fury in that regard.
Half the year, all the prestige. Ladies and didlers welcome to the Half-Year Culty awards!
Not having mania XL as show of the year is criminal
Absolutely love the mention of Lady Frost!
MY GOD THE PRESTIGE
Show of the year turning into the £5 Ken award
Most prestigious event of the year that’s already included a kings birthday. I’m watching this taking a shit with a tie on
NXT will not win promotion of the half year, but in our hearts we know it is; Shawn Michaels has cooked this half year! Edit: I was right, but the pop when the Wolf Dogs won tag team of the half year and Dijak/Oba/Briggs won match of the half year is a very fair trade off
Always excited for these most prestigious awards
Clicked so fast when I saw the notification
DPW is a lot of fun. Glad you guys mentioned it
Absolute bastards releasing this when I’ve got a 7 hour shift starting in 10 minutes
Toni Storm's dedication to the gimmick wins her accolades in my household.
Love the promotion of the year and the wrestler of the year!
Finally a podcast shorter than Raw! Sh1t it's just the awards. 😂
Two great gimmicks on the ballot for best gimmick, but Timeless Toni Storm not even being mentioned is a crime. She had the best by FAR

They barely mentioned her near the end, Maffew noted that he wished he'd considered her. 😊

@@elliefrancois yep, felt bad once I heard that. Still think it’s crazy that she wasn’t mentioned while they were talking about the award tho, but I love them and the podcast, no hate whatsoever
I'm spooging
New report out today about Starks turning down multiple storylines in AEW and having a "difficult to deal with" attitude and label now. Apparently he turned down a storyline where big bill would have turned on him to go to Jericho but starks didn't wanna do it because he felt like it wouldn't help big bill I guess
Jack i so felt that Cody being the hero of the era line.
Ngl I tapped out on wrestling for a bit but you know I had to come back for this prestigious event
I didn't realise they numbered the award shows on top of the regular episodes.
The Culty awards theme sounds like a Pokemon gym.
Was the flux capacitor switched on, I’ve just been sent to Friday.
Ross with the deep cut of Facundo Sava
After the half year he has had I was expecting Joe Hendry to be nominated for most charismatic 🤷🏻♂️
Love the Venom shirt Jack!!!
Pacitti win best knob of months January - June.
bloody hell half year culties already!?
I’m surprised Chris Jericho learning tree wasn’t a option
Toni Storm for Sports Entertainer of the half-year
Hope you're having a good day
I can tell the podcast has broken me when this one hour video actually feels short.
I'm sorry how did Cody vs Roman not win Match of the Year? Not a single match mentioned in that segment was bigger.
Let’s gooo !!
Oh, come on... Not one of them is wearing a t-shirt tuxedo for this occasion?
39:26 spot on
One of the main reasons I wanted to watch this was feud of the half year - and you guys nailed it! Without a single one on one match yet, Drew vs Punk is still the best feud of the half year. It’s SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!
Always look forward to this, and always freaked out by the morphed faces of the wrestlers, a bit too Aphex Twin for my liking.
44:55 Night 1, not night 2
I honestly do think they planned the Rock heel turn from the beginning. There was no way they thought the crowd was gonna be ok with that. If Vince was still in charge maybe, but I think that was planned from the start....it was all too perfect.

OSW certainly think we all got worked, that documentary is going to be fascinating to watch when it releases
No chapters
A PODCAST ON A TUESDAY, HOW UNCOUTH
No Prince Nana for best non-wrestler is crazy
Crazy that the criteria for "throwback tag team" is not doing a lot of flips. What the fuck
No Joe hendry for charisma? Shocking behaviour
Drew McIntyre is the Best in 2024
In Austria as well as the rest of german speaking european countries we only get Raw and Smackdown as summarized versions days after they original air. Before Trips took over I didn't care because even there I skipped a lot due to it being unbearable. Now I can't wait for WWE to arrive at Netflix so I will finally be able to watch those shows in full again! Up the WWE!
Ospreay vs. Danielson got robbed for MOTY lol. But great picks all around. I think Wyatt Sick6 may end up gimmick of the year in the end.
Womens wrestler of the year?
Nigel over Paul Heyman is laughable 😂
Cody is the hero of the era so far... but if he ultimately turns heel and Sami takes him down... well, Sami would be the hero of the era.
Facundo Sava was fine, but he had to replace Louis Saha and that was... not easy.
UP THE DIDDLIES!!!!!!
32:00 if we deduct punks time off I jured for the purpose of the £5 bet so far I think he's been in WWE around 2 and a half months
YES THE DIDDLYS
Hold and give takeover
Nah what is that Nia Jax graphic ?
Most underrated for me gotta be (in a maffew voice) ken-suke ka-text-ya guy has fantastic matches and really should be featured more
The luls for AEW have been low. The All In backstage footage is the main thing, but it shouldn't be with their level of talent. This may be the best roster they've had as a company, but when they're in a lul, it doesn't feel good.
52:17 much like Shane Gillis, Ross has a touch of the Ralph Wiggum about him too.
Idk how Cody vs Roman isn’t there for MOTY. Then again it’s an opinion so I can’t fault it.

I find it crazy how it's not on Jack's top ten matches of the year on his MOTM podcast, then again I am biased for the mark out Marvel Endgame moments at the final stretch
Jey USO is most charismatic YEET!
Alcoholic Wrestling
Counter argument, we don't want to see roh champions in aew because there's too many belts, also, why don't they use roh womens champion Athena on aew she's alright
So excited for all this nonsense from you Gary KZreadrs.
Ricky Starks will leave AEW in a few weeks. A has made it clear for months he’s going to leave. AEW aren’t going to push a guy who’s about to join their biggest rivals, hence why Starks isn’t in a feud.
It gets old that everything Kenny, Bryan and now Will is 5 stars no matter what. If this was an actual sport, it makes sense. However, if you look at the entirety of what wrestling really is which is entertainment, Cody is easily the wrestler of the year. In ring has been very good, but he tells stories and draw $$ because it's not about the "sport" of wrestling but the entirety of the spectacle. Swerve is close to this group. Joe should have been mentioned. They are complete wrestlers. (Joe mentioned Trick, who is getting closer but is a ways away). Dragonov also deserves mention. Everything he does is awesome.
You guys go too easy on wwe. You’re comparing what it was to what it is now. Instead you should be comparing what it is to what it could be. wwe used to be complete shit, now it’s not. It seems amazing because of that but it’s just mediocre. Meanwhile you compare the amazing peaks of aew to its few low points. It’s just not comparable. A e dub 4 life 😤 lol
